> This is probably not a good URL strategy. Your view_category URL's overlap
with your view_post URL's, which means that your view_category URL's will
never work because [\w-]+ is contained within [^\.]+, which matches any
character except for a \ and period, neither of which will ever be
contained in a common slug format (used by view_category).
Wouldn't it be better and more obvious to namespace the URL's so that what
you are matching is much more clear? Otherwise you'll have no way of
telling a post apart from a category.
2 url(r'^post/(?P<slug>[^\.]+)/$', views.view_post, name='view_post'),
3 url(r'^category/(?P<slug>[\w-]+)/$', views.view_category,
name='view_category')
